Initiatives

The work of The HEAD Foundation as a think tank is to define and plan new methods for the advancement of education in Asia. The HEAD Foundation supports the practical application of research and thinking in education and leadership development with select initiatives. The role of the Foundation in these projects ranges from an active designer and organizer, to development advisory support.

Current initiatives under discussion or in effect consist of:

Research collaboratives in the Foundation’s fields of interest;

Leadership development programs and simulations;

New models for education; and

Co-sponsoring of executive training programs.

The Foundation will continue to monitor the work in the region which it feels will contribute to the advancement of education and leadership for development in Asia.
